SUMMARY:Outlaws and Scofflaws: Pirates and the Making of the Mediterranean - Judith Tucker (Georgetown University)
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, October 10th\, 5:00 pm\nIHC McCune Conference Room (HSSB 6020) \nHow did the Mediterranean emerge as a coherent and recognizable place in the early modern period? By looking to the semi-licit world of piracy and to the development of its laws and practices in particular\, we can trace a convergence of understandings and agreements across Mediterranean space. Ironically enough\, these outlaws and scofflaws of the time played major roles in forging the critical connections that drew the shores of the Mediterranean closer in a time of turmoil on the seas. Should we give pirates significant credit for the making of the modern Mediterranean? \nJudith E. Tucker (PhD\, History and Middle Eastern Studies\, Harvard University\, 1981) is Professor of History at Georgetown University and former Editor of the International Journal of Middle East Studies (2004-2009). She is the author of many publications on the history of women and gender in the Arab world\, including Women in 19th Century Egypt (Cambridge University Press\, 1985)\, In the House of the Law: Gender and Islamic Law in Ottoman Syria and Palestine (California University Press\, 1998)\, Women\, Family\, and Gender in Islamic Law (Cambridge University Press\, 2008)\, and co-author of Women in the Middle East and North Africa: Restoring Women to History (Indiana University Press\, 1999). She has authored numerous articles for professional journals\, edited volumes\, and encyclopedias. Her research interests focus on the Arab world in the Ottoman period\, women and gender in Middle East history\, Islamic law\, women\, and gender\, and most recently the Arab World\, the Mediterranean\, and global connections in the eighteenth century.

SUMMARY:"Catastrophic Thinking: Extinction and the Value of Diversity\," a talk by David Sepkoski
DESCRIPTION:Why do we care about preserving biodiversity? At the beginning of the 21st century biodiversity has come to be seen as fragile and tenuous\, constantly endangered by the threat of loss. Extinction plays a central role in this understanding of biodiversity. Whereas most historians who have examined this phenomenon have placed the modern biodiversity movement in the context of a history of conservation biology and endangered species protection\, I want to frame it in a new perspective. This talk will examine the influence of biological theories about the nature and dynamics of extinction—and especially mass extinction—on the current valuation of biological diversity. I will focus particularly on the ways that new understandings of extinction in the past—for example\, the extinction of the dinosaurs—have converged with scientific and cultural anxieties about the present—the specters of global warming\, nuclear war\, and biodiversity loss. I will argue that this new model of extinction has played a prominent conceptual and rhetorical role in debates surrounding the current biodiversity crisis\, which I will examine in critical historical perspective. \nDavid Sepkoski is Senior Research Scholar at the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science in Berlin \nSepkoski_flyer2

SUMMARY:Suez at Sixty: Remembering the Suez Crisis and War of 1956
DESCRIPTION:This fall marks the 60th anniversary of the Suez War of 1956\, a pivotal moment in Egyptian\, Middle Eastern\, and international history. In response to Egypt’s nationalization of the Suez Canal Company\, Britain\, France\, and Israel launched a coordinated military assault against Egypt. The United States\, the Soviet Union\, and much of the international community strongly opposed this move\, eventually compelling the aggressors to withdraw their forces from Egypt. These events signaled a new complexity in the Cold War and hastened the decline of British and French empire in the Arab world\, permitting the United States and the Soviet Union to increase their own involvement in the region while also accelerating the broader decolonization movement. \nSmoke rises from oil tanks beside the Suez Canal; November 1956\nTo bring out these areas of significance and connection\, members of the UCSB community will host a two-day program of events: \nOn THURSDAY\, OCTOBER 20\, at 7:30 PM in HSSB 6020\, we will screen the BBC documentary film “The Other Side of Suez\,” a riveting reconstruction of the Suez Crisis and War that brings out the perspectives of numerous international actors: Egypt\, Israel\, Britain\, France\, the United States\, the Soviet Union\, and other nations. Following the documentary\, which runs for one hour\, Professor Joel Gordon of the University of Arkansas will lead a discussion of the issues raised by the film. \nOn FRIDAY\, OCTOBER 21\, from 1:30 to 5:30 PM in the UNIVERSITY CENTER HARBOR ROOM\, we will host a series of insightful academic talks by a diverse array of scholars\, from UCSB and elsewhere\, each focusing on a different aspect of the Suez Crisis and its legacy. The speakers include: \n\nJennifer Derr\, Assistant Professor of History at the University of California\, Santa Cruz\nMuriam Haleh Davis\, Assistant Professor of History at the University of California\, Santa Cruz\nJoel Gordon\, Professor of History and Director of the King Fahd Center at the University of Arkansas\nDwight Reynolds\, Professor of Religious Studies\, UCSB\nSherene Seikaly\, Associate Professor of History\, UCSB\nSalim Yaqub\, Professor of History\, UCSB\n\nA more detailed schedule of the Friday talks is available here \nBoth events are free and open to the public. Delicious refreshments\, also free of charge\, will be served.

SUMMARY:Lecture by Dr. Lella Gandini on Early Childhood Education
DESCRIPTION:“Early Childhood Education and Society in Post-War Italy:\n The Case of Reggio Emilia” \nIn Northern Italy in the late 1960’s\, within the context of the  emerging Italian feminist movement and of social protests advocating  for better social services\, child care\, and schools for young  children\, the city of Reggio Emilia developed an innovative system for  the education of young children. Parents\, citizens and new immigrants  alike\, were included as owners and participants.  Teachers\, moreover\, collaborated with school psychologist Loris Malaguzzi in developing a  system of documentation for their innovative work in the preschool  setting. \nDr. Gandini\, the U.S. liaison for the Reggio Emilia Program\, is the  co-author of The Hundred Languages of Children: The Reggio Emilia  Approach-Advanced Reflections; Bambini: The Italian Approach to  Infant/Toddler Care; In the Spirit of the Studio: Learning from the  Atelier of Reggio Emilia; and Loris Malaguzzi and the Teachers:  Dialogues on Collaboration and Conflict Among Children. \n \n

SUMMARY:"Diplomacy as a Means of Political Survival: The Cities and Duchies of the Northern Holy Roman Empire in relation to France\, 1650–1730\," a talk by Indravati Félicité
DESCRIPTION:“Diplomacy as a Means of Political Survival: The Cities and Duchies of the Northern Holy Roman Empire in relation to France\, 1650–1730” \nTalk by Indravati Félicité\, Maîtresse de conférences\, Université Paris-Diderot (Paris VII)\nOctober 27 @ 4:00 pm – 5:30 pm in HSSB 4020 \nIndravati Félicité is the author of Négocier pour exister. Les villes et duchés du nord de l’Empire face à la France 1650–1730 (Berlin : Walter de Gruyter\, 2016). This talk analyzes France’s impact on the politics of the Hanseatic cities of Lübeck\, Bremen\, and Hamburg and the duchies of Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorp and Mecklenburg-Schwerin at the time of King Louis XIV. This was a period of change in the constitutional premises of the Holy Roman Empire. For these German “states” as well as for the diplomats and statesmen involved in these relations\, negotiation and diplomacy became a matter of life and death\, essential for safeguarding the existence of their governments. The place held by the diplomats in this process underlines the importance of their networks and reveals their contribution to the genesis of the early modern State.

SUMMARY:Prof. Cavan Concannon (USC): "An Assemblage Approach to Early Christianity\, Deleuze\, Latour\, and the Letters of Dionysios of Corinth"
DESCRIPTION:Modern historians map the diversity of early Christianity in a variety of ways\, from declines into heresy to competition among “varieties” of early Christianities. Drawing particularly on the philosophical work of Gilles Deleuze and Bruno Latour\, Concannon argues that  we might better map the remains of second-century Christianity by focusing on networks of people\, ideas\, and letters that moved along broader patterns of trade and communication in the eastern Mediterranean. Focusing on the costs\, velocities\, and viscosities of movement and commerce\, he examines the network associated with Dionysios of Corinth\, whose writings come to us only as fragments and summaries in Eusebius’ Ecclesiastical History. Concannon shows how non-human actants such as geography\, economic activity\, and trade routes shape the interactions within Dionysios’ network\, allowing us to think more broadly about second-century Christianity as a series of emergent networks that form\, coalesce\, and dissolve in the flow of movement and connectivity that characterized the Roman Mediterranean.

SUMMARY:Giuliana Perrone Speaks on Reconstruction-Era Courts and Legacies of Slavery
DESCRIPTION:Giuliana Perrone\, new Assistant Professor in the History Department\, will give a talk at the IHC on the role the courts played in (re)constructing the lives of black families. Perrone will discuss the problems and possibilities Reconstruction-era courts presented to former slaves and the legal system in “Slaves into Citizens: Legitimizing Black Domestic Relationships in Reconstruction-Era State Courts” This talk is one of a series of lectures put together by the IHC’s Research Focus Group (RFG) on Slavery\, Captivity\, and the Meaning of Freedom. Perrone’s larger current project\,”Litigating Emancipation: Slavery’s Legal Afterlife\, 1865-1877\,” explores the ways that slavery and the court system remained relevant after emancipation and how concepts of race shaped legal and political identities over time. \n

SUMMARY:Five Centuries of Mortality: The Second Plague Pandemic in Comparative Perspective\, Egypt\, 1347 - 1844 CE  Stuart Borsch (Assumption College)
DESCRIPTION:This talk will analyze the impact of the Second plague pandemic in Egypt (1347-1844 CE). The Second plague pandemic refers to the long series of epidemics that struck the Middle East and Europe\, starting with the Black Death\, 1347-1351 CE. This pandemic generally lasted until the early 1700s in Europe\, but longer in the Middle East. Why was this? Professor Borsch explores this question and the possible connection to the economic and technological divergence between Europe and the Middle East between the 1300s and 1800s. Borsch also takes a comparative perspective\, looking at the dynamics of this long-term catastrophe by studying the mortality of the urban (Cairo\, Alexandria\, Qus\, Asyut) and rural plague outbreaks in the Mamluk and Ottoman periods and into the modern period\, 1347-1844. His talk will include some comparative perspectives with Syrian population losses. \nCo-sponsored by the King Abdul Aziz Ibn Saud Chair in Islamic Studies and the Center for Middle East Studies

SUMMARY:Digital History Workshop: Mapping Spartacus: The Topography of Servitude and Rebellion --
DESCRIPTION:Spartacus is a historical figure that has captured the imagination of millions since he escaped from that gladiatorial school in Capua over two millennia ago. This workshop looks at the historical sources for the Third Servile War (73-71 BCE) and then introduces basic digital approaches to mapping the movement of Spartacus and his supporters through the Italic peninsula\, based on these surviving texts and using geodata from the Pleiades Project. No knowledge of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is required for this workshop\, just an interest in Roman history\, the geography of rebellion\, and the use of texts to reconstruct the topography of social history. Led by Sarah Bond\, professor of History and Classics at the University of Iowa\, and regular blogger for Forbes Magazine on connections between the ancient and modern worlds\, this is another of our events to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the founding of Public History at UCSB. \nPlease RSVP to Professor James Brooks.

SUMMARY:Monumental Mausolea: Building Projects and Slave Labor from Antiquity to the World Cup
DESCRIPTION:Sarah Bond\, Assistant Professor of Classics at the University of Iowa\, will examine the use of slave labor in monumental building through a broad historical lens. The use of contracted and slave labor for large building projects has roots going back to antiquity. The Pyramids at Giza\, the Baths of Caracalla\, the Great Wall of China\, and\, now\, the sports arenas being erected for the Qatar World Cup in 2022 have all relied upon thousands of workers in order to build these monumental structures. Despite the hands of thousands contributing to the creation of these landmark buildings\, the lives of the contracted workers\, slaves\, and freed-persons who labored and often died while working on them have been largely invisible. This lecture examines the politics of celebrating a building such as the Colosseum or the White House while disregarding the contributions and sacrifices of the slaves that made these works possible. It also asks: what new landscapes of memory\, commemoration\, and public appreciation can be created when we notify the public of the extensive input of slaves? \nSponsored by the IHC’s Slavery\, Captivity\, and the Meaning of Freedom RFG\,  the Dept. of Classics\, the Public History Program\,  and the IHC’s Ancient Borderlands RFG. \n

SUMMARY:"China and the 2008 Riots in Tibet: What Happened\, and How Do We Know?" with Prof. Zheng
DESCRIPTION:UCSB’s Professor Xiaowei Zheng (November 20 at 4:30PM at the Goleta Public Library) will discuss the difficulties in assessing the 2008 riots in Tibet. The rioting that began on March 14 in the Tibetan capital\, Lhasa\, spread quickly to other Tibetan cities. In Lhasa\, rioters targeted Han Chinese merchants who suffered injuries\, casualties\, and massive property damage. In the crackdown that followed\, the authorities arrested over a thousand Tibetans. Controversy quickly emerged over allegations that there had been serious inaccuracies and biases in reports about the coverage of the riots in the international media. Zheng will analyze the coverage\, drawing upon video images and press accounts. The media stories shaped people’s understanding of the events\, demonstrating how challenging it can be even to know the very recent past. \n

SUMMARY:"The Devil's Wheels: Men and Motorcycling in the Weimar Republic\," A Talk by Sasha Disko
DESCRIPTION:During the high days of modernization fever\, among the many disorienting changes Germans experienced in the Weimar Republic was an unprecedented mingling of consumption and identity: increasingly\, what one bought signaled who one was. Exemplary of this volatile dynamic was the era’s burgeoning motorcycle culture. With automobiles largely a luxury of the upper classes\, motorcycles complexly symbolized masculinity and freedom\, embodying a widespread desire to embrace progress as well as profound anxieties over the course of social transformation. Through its richly textured account of the motorcycle as both icon and commodity\,The Devil’s Wheels teases out the intricacies of gender and class in the Weimar years.

SUMMARY:Talk by Prof Rui Kohiyama on American Women Missionaries and Romantic Love in Meiji Japan
DESCRIPTION:Please join us in welcoming Professor Rui Kohiyama (American and Gender Studies\, Tokyo Woman’s Christian University) to UCSB. Professor Kohiyama will give a talk on “American Woman Missionaries\, Christian Homes\, and Romantic Love in Meiji Japan.” American women missionaries are well known for their educational and reformatory intervention in various mission fields in Asia. Although their initiatives in criticizing child marriage and widowhood in india and foot-binding in China are famous\, those in Japan are vague: all we have been told is that they introduced “modern education for women” in Japan. This presentation will clarify the relationship between “modern education for women” and the missionary aim of creating Christian homes\, and point out the unexpected outcome of  missionary education: nurturing “romantic love” in mission schools. \nProfessor Rui Kohiyama is author of As Our god Along Will Lead Us: The Nineteenth-Century American Women’s Foreign Missionary Enterprise and its Encounter with Meiji Japan (in Japanese\, 1992) and co-editor/co-author of Introduction to the History of Gender in the United States (in Japanese\, 2010).

SUMMARY:Critical Race Theory and The Health Sciences
DESCRIPTION:This symposium\, organized in part by UCSB History and Black Studies Professor Terence Keel\, will explore the embedded nature of race in the health sciences and identify opportunities to disrupt and rethink these arrangements in pursuit of racial justice and health equity. We will examine the interconnected histories of science\, medicine\, and law that lead racial differences and disparities to be mistakenly understood and experienced as natural phenomena\, obscuring their social\, political\, and economic determinants. We will also discuss the theoretical and empirical interventions that bring attention to the constructed nature of our racial imaginations in the health sciences. Additionally\, the methodological challenges associated with developing intersectional approaches that do not obscure (and indeed support) the centrality of other identity standpoints—such as sex\, gender\, class\, sexuality\, and disability—when exploring race in health sciences research will be considered through the symposium presentations and discussions. \nAll—including faculty\, students\, and the general public—are welcome to attend the symposium on Friday\, January 20\, 2017. For academic questions\, contact the AJLM Symposium editors at ajlmsymposium@gmail.com.

SUMMARY:Black Classicism in the United States- Lecture by Prof. Michele Ronnick\, Wayne State University
DESCRIPTION:Professor Michele Ronnick of Wayne State University will give a lecture as part of the new exhibit\, “14 Black Classicists\,” at the Art\, Design\, and Architecture Museum. The talk describes the work of African-American classical scholars who taught Greek and Latin at the college or university level following the Civil War. These scholars made pathbreaking achievements\, opening up fields like philology (the study of language) and paving the way for African-Americans to attend college. \nThe exhibit\, 14 Black Classicists\, is organized by Professor Ronnick and was brought to UCSB by Professor Helen Morales\, the Hellenic Studies Committee\, and the Department of Classics\, thanks to the generosity of UCSB’s Argyropoulos endowment in Hellenic Studies and is co-sponsored by the Department of Black Studies.
